Awesome been wondering how to do this.
I messed around with the event Ashley posted and if you make a global var with a value of 0.05 to replace the 0.05 within the 'Every X Seconds' condition you can then use key down and key release events to change the speed that the text 'types'
I'd imagine a global variable would be the best way to go?
I do have a question though, actually 2
1. Is there a way to check when you're at the end of the text block? For example 3 lines of text come and then you can press a button to bring the next 3 lines of text? If that makes sense. An example of this being most rpg games on handhelds.
2. Can Construct read from text files (or equivalent)? For example can it open a text file and pull X amount of lines from it to add to an array which can then be output via the text object?
I figure I'd just hijack this thread instead of posting a new topic :D
